If you voted me for King I'd bring in a rule that anyone needing to dig up part of a road takes all responsibility of that specific patch for a year from the point they finished it. If it opens up again the big retainer stays with the council. No one seems to take responsibility.
Then there's the nonsense situation that if the the pot hole has been sprayed with a rattle can, it means the council are aware and have earmarked the specific hole for repair and are no longer liable if you have an accident there!
